which bags do you find work best multi or board finish

 

[Spreader27]

2/3 bags per set and if I can get away with two sets i will, 3 sets and I'm knackerd elbows play up and I'm asleep early.

 

[jeanclaudevangyproc]

which bags do you find work best multi or board finish

Board finish are quite good I found the best way to use multi is start at the bottom of the wall and work your way up cause the bags are crap now takes 3 6in nails per bag since they changed them but I just pass the extra cost onto the customer so everyones a winner! Any suggestions on how to stop getting humps in boards? After I nail the adhesive bags to wall having trouble getting boards straight I've tried using coach bolts but there's no coaches parked up around here at min and don't want to buy anyreally
